I have started working on my newest project, #NoDaysOff. It is going 2 be just that, a project. I'm going to use this project as a chance to build relationships in this industry. I'm planning on working with many artist on this project. Some are accomplished and others are just starting out. I want to be able to work with everyone. We as NYC artists need to stick together and help each other out. So #NoDaysOff will be the 1st of its kind. I will be releasing a #NoDaysOff mixtape between my big projects. The Love @ 1st Sight is gonna drop and then #NoDaysOff is like the interlude before the next project. All the beats will be either songs I love to listen to or songs I feel I have to do.

Hope y'all are ready for this project. Its gonna be nothing but fun. I'm so excited and cant wait to get this going.

So I'm having a problem accepting all the rappers today. People who have never written anything in their life besides school work thinks they are a rapper. We say that being a rapper is easy nowadays. Its true! Everyone with a beat thinks they can really spit. I think otherwise. I have been writing rhymes since I was 10 years old. I have been perfecting this for over 9 years now. I feel some type of way when people randomly become rappers. It truly upsets me to the point where I am ready to diss any and everyone of these "rappers'. So instead of me wasting my time on these people, I choose to write about it here. I feel everyone needs to know how I feel. I can only express myself in two ways: either in a song or here on my website. So here it is, to all these WEAK, spur of the moment "rappers", I wont listen to your music. I wont promote it. I wont even acknowledge you after this day, maybe in a rhyme. But this is the end of you all. Shoutouts to all my real Emcees out there doing their thing.

Oh! Before I leave you, I will say this: Lil B, you based bitch, I'm coming for ya head. So get ready to feel like Ichabod Crane. Fucking cockroach!

PLEASE, IF YOU FEEL THAT I AM A HATER DO NOT CONTINUE READING THIS AT ALL.

I don't know if I'm crazy or not yet. Please someone tell me if I am or not. Lil B, a new artist in the rap game is getting backed by 1 of my favorite producers, 9th Wonder. Lil B in my opinion is a fake and he isn't even a real MC. Nowadays, people are getting signed because they market to a certain audience and not for their music. I feel this is wrong and although it is a BUSINESS, there are too many fans of music for the labels to do this. People who are really grinding hard to be heard, just to be heard, get no type of ear or recognition at all. This goes for artist like E.L.I.T.E., COJ, Spoken Phor, myself, Legacy, Yankee Boyz and many more. We work harder than almost every rapper that is signed. We make real music and aren't getting any type of respect. So from now on, I'm protesting the artist that I feel haven't even earned a deal.

Im back on the music. We are in March and the mixtape is already a month behind its scheduled release. But I am past that. It will be dropped this month... very very soon. I have been working on the music for after the release. I am planning on flooding the internet. I am gonna drop track after track after track.

Starting in April, I will begin Flight Intended. Flight Intended will be like a highlight of up-and-coming artist. I will have the artist's bio, website, discography and all major links and pages connected to the artist. If you know any up-and-coming artist that are looking for some exposure, please email me at YoungNovaLegacy@aol.com

Also look out for next week's E.L.I.T.E. WEEK Vol. 10 featuring yours truly on the track. Check out WhiteKnightEnt.com for all of the E.L.I.T.E. WEEK tracks.

Biography

Young Nova, born Damone Barlow Jr., was raised in Manhattan, NYC. Growing up around older brother Rated R may have influenced many things he has done but he has always been his own man. Seeing the things that people in his area would get into, Nova always wanted better. Listening to music would control most of his time while at home. He started writing poetry at age 9. This soon turned into rhymes at age 11. As he developed his skills over the years, others started to notice. At the age of 16 he, Rated R & cousin Haze created the group Legacy. At this time Nova was still growing into his flow and getting the hang of recording. With influences like Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco, Common, Kid CuDi & Drake, this NYC rapper has taken the lyricism NYC is known for and has taken it to another level with his MidWest and backpack rap style. Now 18, Young Nova is set to release his 1st mixtape "The Love @ 1st Sight". With a great surrounding of rappers, Young Nova can only look up.
